Ah, the dreaded Continue Watching section on Disney+. It’s a digital graveyard. Filled with the ghosts of shows you started... and abandoned. We've all been there, right?
The Shameful Truth
Let's be honest. Some shows just don't grab you. You watch ten minutes, maybe an episode. Then, BAM! Into the Continue Watching abyss it goes. Forever reminding you of your unfinished business.
Is there really a way to declutter this digital disaster zone? I'm here to tell you there is! Prepare yourself, it may require some... commitment.
Method 1: The "Finish It (For Real)" Approach
This is the respectable way. You suck it up. You finish watching the movie or series. Every single episode! Then, and only then, will it vanish from your Continue Watching purgatory.
But who has that kind of time? And that kind of willpower? Not me. I'd rather re-watch The Mandalorian for the tenth time.
Method 2: The "Fast Forward and Pray" Gambit
Okay, so you're not going to *actually* watch it. I get it. Instead, skip to the end. Let the credits roll.
Hopefully, Disney+ will register that you've "finished" it. Then, POOF! Gone from your Continue Watching section. Like magic.
Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. It's a gamble. A thrilling gamble!
Method 3: The "Multiple Profiles" Maneuver
This is where things get interesting. Create a new profile. Label it something like "Things I Regret Starting".
Move all those embarrassing unfinished shows to this profile. Problem solved... for *your* main profile, anyway!
Out of sight, out of mind, right? It's like hiding vegetables under your mashed potatoes.
Method 4: The "Binge and Purge" Strategy
Find a show you're *absolutely* sure you'll never watch again. Start watching it on your profile.
Quickly stop. Then, find the Disney+ app settings on your device. Clear the app's data and cache.
This *should* reset your viewing history. Including the stuff in Continue Watching. It's a bit drastic, but hey, desperate times...
Method 5: The "Acceptance" Technique
Maybe... just maybe... we should embrace the chaos. Let the Continue Watching section be a testament to our fleeting interests.
A reminder of all the shows that promised so much... and delivered so little. Think of it as a digital scrapbook of your viewing habits.
Okay, I'm kidding. I still want to delete them all. Maybe Disney+ will add a "remove" button someday. We can only dream.
My Unpopular Opinion
Here it is: Disney+ should just let us manually remove things! Is that so much to ask?
We're paying customers! We deserve control over our viewing experience! Give the people what they want, Disney+!
Until then, happy (and slightly frustrated) streaming!
May your Continue Watching section be ever in your favor... or at least, manageable.
